I feel sad not only for David Mark but also for our news media and you lot here in Nairaland. You guys are all so uninformed and ignorant and that's why Nigeria suffers. CBN does not spend N300 billion as Mark alleged. Mark should resign for that statement. He just shows that he doesn't even understand the rudiments of economics and government and he shouldn't be presiding over an institution like national assembly. Overheard for CBN and overheard for NASS are 2 different things. for example, CBN can buy government bonds just to mop up the economy and check things like inflation. That doesn't mean they are spending the money on themselves or on projects. Its just economics. But then, the money is still recorded as expenditure against the CBN account. Its like using money to buy money. Its normal economics that government financial institutions all over the world do to regulate the economy. That is a major part of what makes up CBN expenditure. Apart from actual cost to run the organization. The NASS on the other hand spend this money on items like cars, hotel, furniture, etc. If mark does not know this, he doesn't no anything about governance. His comment is too ignorant for a senate president to make. It is a disgrace.

Good one

the senate president (david) is a disgrace to all senators in the world, he does not even know what he is talking about.

Welcome to nigeria comedy show, Lwkmd

Next yr, NASS will b getting 25% or more of 4.2 trillion. Dat amount alone crashed my system

Absolute disgrace to be called Senate President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Please let's start putting learned people in this position !! May God help us.

^^^^^^^Dimeji Bankole, who has all kinds of degrees, expressed a similar view at a public lecture in Unilag. Check this link.

The guys are just on there own, not representing anyone, it is so sad.

atleast they're not denying to be thieves.

thief, ole, carry them go,

Well i dont blame the senators, the money they get per month is disturbing them. They cant get something reasonable i mean get prove. Pls sentors help nigerians.

That is why the dudes decleared to themselves continuity.

Why dont these senators respect the office they are currently occupying?
Why on earth would d senate president give such a response?

The guys are just on there own, not representing anyone, it is so sad.

And to think HE has just declared to contest for the FOURTH TERM

may God help us.

Cool! At least we are getting somewhere, he has agreed that they really are responsible for the 25% as noted by the CBN Governor.

Let the PROBE begin!

Lets be clear on some simple facts- CBN is an AUTONOMOUS, SELF FUNDING INSTITUTION, its NOT a parastatal as some believe. Second CBN REMITS 75% of operating surplus to FG every year (Thats profit to the layman) this runs into billions annually. How many FG institutions raise money to cover operations, and realise gains at year end? CBN has always published audited accounts and they are available on the public record. the balance sheet size is over 1trillion naira. Mark is a misguided ex coupist and shdnt be taken seriously pls. The exponents of "accountability" should start with institutions who have NEVER presented any audited financials (not even the jibiti audited by auditor general).

lmao!!!

David mark should shut up. They are all thieves.

Pot calling kettle black.

Kiss my teeth!

So, CBN; Needs the funds 2 actually run the nations finance sector
Senate; Spends it on S#*t
take ur pick :

I think we need wikileaks to tell us who steal more between NASS and CBN

does mark have any excuse for dis daft statement? being a soldier isn't any excuse, there're plenty of good ones out there. Perhaps he just doesn't see any need to respect the rest of us.

I bet he does not have, same way he did not have one in 1988, when he wondered why students would complain of fuel price increase since they did not have cars, lol.

Lawmakers 25%. CBN 50% so na 140million nigerians dey share the rest 25%. Ole

David mark is a real example of semi illitrate who can not think inteligently. He has acknowledge they are thieves so what's the point trying to justify their stealing with regard to c.b.n. If not for his block headedness. Sanusi is an inteligent man with integrity which all nigerias can see for themselves. Its time we revolt against these blockheaded thieves call nass members

senate president? more like primary 1 class prefect. see thinking. and these people are supposed to think and bring out new laws for our consumption.
these people are riding on the work done by nnamdi azikiwe, awolowo, tafawa balewa dem.
they're doing nothing there.

He actually admitted that he is a theif without knowing. God, how can we have these kinds as leaders?

Its about time thinking people like me get into this thing and revolutionize.

CBN steals , so the Senate too has to Steal.
@ least he agreed that the Senate do steal. we are getting somewhere.

See hw den dey share naija money, shame on u DM
